It would be nice to have some level of integration with web applications
in the desktop. For instance, I would like to update my facebook status
or tweet easily via the user status menu in the shell. I would also like
facebook message notification with the message tray, and facebook chat
support. 

And I'm sure there are many other small integration points that may be
useful:
* Easily share pictures on flickr/facebook/etc
* Easily share links on facebook/etc
* Facebook as address book source

It would also be cool if we had some set of web-services of our own that
we could integrate with, like:

* Easy on-web filestore integrated with everything
* Syncing of preferences and bookmarks to my.gnome.org
